Chapter 2189: Chapter 1220: Mysteries and Speculation (Part 2)

Upon hearing Leo Ray speak, Phil remained silent for a moment before shaking her head again and saying, “This conjecture is indeed much more reasonable, but I also do not think so.”

“You must know, in my last memories, that was the most prosperous time of the Silver Moon Era; the Ten Thousand Clans established temples, listened to Divine Revelation, praised the deities, everything was thriving. How could they suddenly become enemies with the deities?”

“Moreover, for deities who are above all, the strength of the Ten Thousand Clans is practically negligible. Even if there was a conflict among the deities, there was no necessity to involve the Ten Thousand Clans.”

“Because it’s akin to a world-shaking battle between two supreme powerhouses, yet simultaneously commanding tiny ants on the ground to go to war; it’s utterly meaningless.”

The more Phil spoke, the more perplexed she became, sighing lightly as she said, “In any case, I think we can rule this out as well.”

“Perhaps the third conjecture could answer the questions of your Highness, the Princess.”

Leo Ray nodded to Phil and presented the final conjecture.

“That is, the evil gods of the Sun Era were not completely eradicated, so some of them returned, further tempting the Ten Thousand Clans.”

“After all, to the chaotic evil gods, the various negative emotions erupting from the Ten Thousand Clans are the best nutrients, so they first corrupted the Ten Thousand Clans, even inciting them to oppose the deities.”

“As a result, the Ten Thousand Clans could not resist the temptation of the evil gods, choosing to forsake everything and naively stand against the deities, even attempting to kill them.”

“As for the final outcome, it is obvious: the deities won the war again, easily wiping out the remnants of the evil gods, and the performance of the Ten Thousand Clans greatly disappointed the deities, making divine punishment inevitable.”

“However, the deities did not choose to utterly destroy the Ten Thousand Clans but instead erased that part of history, giving the orphaned descendants of the Ten Thousand Clans a chance to start anew.”

“Conversely, the deities no longer favored this land, leaving the orphaned descendants of the Ten Thousand Clans to fend for themselves on this land.”

After listening to Leo Ray’s third conjecture, Phil propped her chin with one hand and, after pondering with furrowed brows for a long time, finally spoke, “Compared to the first two conjectures, this one indeed sounds more reasonable, but if you examine it closely, there are still many inexplicable things.”

“If the Ten Thousand Clans were truly misled by the evil gods, destroying their former faith, the first thing they should have done was to destroy the temples and idols everywhere. Why do these things still remain to this day? Leading to ‘The Last Idol Effect’?”

“Moreover, the ‘Dislocated Objects Effect’ and ‘Lost Relic Effect’ cannot be explained either.”

Phil looked up, staring firmly at Leo Ray and said, “So, I believe that there might be some hidden truth behind all this, and it’s not as simple as these three conjectures.”

“Based on these three conjectures and the existing clues, do you, who have experienced the Silver Moon Era, have any other views?”

Hearing the other speak out what he had been thinking, Leo Ray asked back with great interest.

“Sorry, my mind is now a complete mess, with many places just a blank, I really can’t think it through.”

Phil shook her head helplessly, her voice unconsciously becoming a bit despondent.

“Your Highness, the Princess, there is no need to apologize. If any other thoughts come to you, just let me know.”

Leo Ray waved his hand and continued, “Actually, there is one more thing intricately linked with the Era of Blankness, which is the advent of us Otherworldly Lords.”

“The advent of the Otherworldly Lords?”

Phil tilted her head, looking over with a face full of confusion.

“Here’s how it goes.”

With that, Leo Ray described to her the matter of being an Otherworldly Lord and his inexplicable advent.

In this, Leo Ray also mentioned King West, who, as a forerunner Transcender, arrived with an incomplete Lord Interface, as well as the talents of the Otherworldly Lords.

After all, through previous exchanges with the Illusory Spirit Clan Queen, Leo Ray had learned that the source of the lords’ awakening talents, including his own Golden Finger, is essentially pure Divine Power.

Hence, it is clear that the crossing of ten billion lords, including Leo Ray, to this world is also the handiwork of the deities.

“No wonder they all call you Lord, it turns out you are not of this world. Indeed, it’s unexpected that Divine Power can directly activate the talents of beings from the Otherworld.”

Phil’s white face was full of surprise and confusion as she said, “But speaking of which, since the deities have already left and no longer favor this land, why would they summon you from your original world to come here?”

“That is exactly what confuses me.”

Leo Ray shrugged, speaking frankly, “But what is certain is that this is a meticulously orchestrated event, otherwise there wouldn’t be forerunner Transcenders arriving early.”

“You’re right, I think the same.”

Phil nodded absorbedly, pensively said, “It seems that you Otherworldly Lords must be carrying a mission that the orphaned descendants of the Ten Thousand Clans couldn’t complete. After all, the deities would never act like this; there must be deeper meaning behind it.”

“That phrase really sounds familiar, but since they summoned us here, yet didn’t explain the real purpose, never even showed up, and instead let us explore everything on our own, one wonders what these deities are truly thinking.”

Leo Ray’s eyebrows furrowed slightly as he shook his head helplessly.

“Perhaps the deities have some unspeakable dilemma.”

Phil, not knowing what else to say, could only smile awkwardly at Leo Ray.

After a moment, her face flushed with puzzlement, blurting out, “Could it be because the deities have some unspeakable secret, unable to undertake it themselves, that’s why they summoned the Otherworldly Lords to solve it all?”

“I have thought of this possibility, but ultimately, the Otherworldly Lords were initially just a group of ordinary people. After all, in my world, there are no ubiquitous energy particles and magical power.”

Leo Ray frowned slightly, responding, “Compared to us ordinary people, if the deities truly need assistance, wouldn’t it be more convenient to directly find the existing orphaned descendants of the Ten Thousand Clans? Why go to such great lengths to summon Otherworldly Lords? Particularly those immortal races, their strength is still unfathomable.”

“Indeed, it’s shrouded in mystery, but I believe, just as you said, whether it’s the multitude of mysteries from the Era of Blankness or the advent of the Otherworldly Lords, there must be some potential connection. Once the truth is found, everything will be resolved.”

Phil’s starry eyes glinted with determination as she spoke to Leo Ray once more.

“That’s right, but fortunately, we’re not without direction.”

Leo Ray glanced at Little Jie, who was cleaning alongside the summoned soldiers, and then told Phil about the series of events concerning the [God’s Stone].

“So this is the function of the [God’s Stone], to pursue the truth of the Era of Blankness?”

Phil gently rubbed her white chin, pondering, “The ‘Key of Truth’ that opens the ‘Gate of Truth’ where the [God’s Stone] is stored, are almost all treasures left by the Ten Thousand Clans. Adding to ‘Gate of Truth’ and [God’s Stone] all being established right after the end of the Era of Blankness…”

“Which means, the deities must have begun plotting all these things we’ve discussed above just after the end of the Era of Blankness, including the advent of the Otherworldly Lords!”

Phil’s white face was filled with sudden enlightenment, as she spoke to Leo Ray, “Young man, just as you said, all this is indeed the meticulous arrangements of the deities!”

“The question is their purpose of doing so, and the true mission of our advent as Otherworldly Lords.”

Leo Ray shrugged, his expression growing solemn again, “I hope we can figure all this out soon.”

After saying that, Leo Ray’s eyes brightened, clearly having thought of something else again.
